Set the oven to broil (grill), and heat it up (or use the barbecue). Arrange all the vegetables on an oven tray. Sprinkle salt and pepper and drizzle extra virgin olive oil all over them. Roast them on the second rack from the top in the oven. Peel the garlic. Gently mix with a fork (picture).

Meanwhile to cook the bulgur pilaf: Saute the onion with olive oil for a few minutes. Add all the pilaf ingredients and stir. Cover and cook over low heat.

Gently toss all the roasted vegetables with the pilaf using a fork. Serve it hot or warm as a light lunch. It is a great vegetarian dish:)

Can you please please please publish your recipes in a cookbook? I live in Canada, and even in major bookstore chains like Indigo I can't find a decent Turkish cookbook! Your recipes are authentic and delicious, and the pictures are just mouth-watering. This is the only reference I use for Turkish cuisine now! ^-^
